I have been a member of Blush Bootcamp for two weeks. Everyone has been so warm, helpful and welcoming. The workouts are tough but fun. Having the InBody scale and goals counseling monthly is another great service. I look forward to my daily Blush workouts!!

Last month, I tried three different gyms and I am so glad I found BLUSH! I was never an athlete so exercise and weightlifting are not easy for me but the supportive environment at BLUSH makes me WANT to work out! The trainers are all so kind and encouraging while also providing modifications and helping me to correct my form. I leave every workout sweaty but proud.

BLUSH is a gym for women BY women and the free childcare makes it so much easier for many of us. I also love scheduling my workouts on the app because then I hold myself accountable to show up!

If you’re curious about trying BLUSH, try a free workout and see if it’s right for you!

I started my journey at Blush boot camp January of 2025. Since then I have become more confident in the gym and outside the gym as well. Every time in walk through the door there is always a groups of smiling face ready to support and cheer you on! The monthly balance meetings are so helpful to see your progress. It has also helped me to remember numbers aren’t the only way to track your progress. The wonderful trainers encourage you to set goals outside of the gym to build the lifestyle that fits you.

BLUSH Waukee is an amazing and supportive all women’s gym designed for any fitness level. Certified trainers are there to walk through, demonstrate, facilitate any modifications, and correct form during the entirety of the workout. The upbeat atmosphere and clean environment are appreciated by all members! Added bonus of the kids club for littles while mommas have some “me time”.

Blush fulfilled everything I hoped this gym would be and so much more. The workouts are structured in a way that works for a wide range of skill and energy levels. The trainers do a great job of demonstrating and providing alternatives. I really appreciate the women that workout at Blush - they are supportive, encouraging and willing to challenge me to do more. I have made a lot of progress in my health and fitness goals and I look forward to workouts!

I started going to Blush when it opened in Dec '23 and just renewed another year of membership! I started without very little exercise background, but never felt out of place! All the wonderful trainers offer modifications if needed and you progress as you are able to. Every trainer and classmate is so welcoming and makes these workouts fun! Never thought I'd be someone to say a gym is fun! I recommend Blush to anyone interested in a new gym from beginners to pros!

Blush boot camp Waukee is the very best! The workouts are challenging and fun and all the trainers are so knowledgeable. The owner is phenomenal and so welcoming! She has worked hard to make the atmosphere feel like a true family. Right now we are doing March madness games and there is always team building and activities to get involved with. If you are looking for a gym that will feel more like a team/ true family- you’ve found the place!!!

I started going to this gym after joining a 6 week transformation challenge when I was just a few months postpartum. I ended up signing up for a membership when the 6 weeks was up, and not only did I get stronger mentally and physically, but i met a group of amazing women along the way! I had never been part of a gym before, and now it’s one of my favorite parts of the day! Plus there is free babysitting 😊 10/10 recommend BLUSH!

Blush is fantastic! The team is very supportive and encouraging. I never used some of the equipment before entering the gym. It’s NOT an intimidating environment. I’ve grown in muscle and confidence. The body scans are part of your membership. It’s been great to see my results on paper and in the mirror. If you are looking for an inclusive and welcoming workout experience, check out Blush!

I've been a member at Blush for over a year. The workouts are always challenging and feel worth my time and energy. No matter what your goals are (weight loss or maintenance, muscle growth, building connections with other women, etc.) there is a place for you at Blush. Modifications are available for any fitness level. The owner of Blush Waukee is highly involved and cares about the experience of the gym members.

I don’t normally write negative reviews, but I feel the need to share my experience to help others make an informed decision. Canceling my account here has been an incredibly frustrating process. I signed a contract in June but got injured during one of their classes within the first few weeks. I had to quit all physical activity for months. I let them know I was injured and wouldn’t be back, but I couldn’t get out of my contract, so I paid without complaint.

When it came time to cancel, I had to jump through hoops: driving to the gym multiple times (doors locked, no staff), emailing back and forth, and waiting several days for responses. After finally being told in October I could cancel via email, I sent a confirmation. Yet I was still charged. It took 8 days and two emails to get a response, only to hear they hadn’t received my confirmation—so I forwarded the one I sent on October 17.

I was so excited for this gym to open. I loved the idea of a women’s-only gym and their fun, pink equipment. The concept is great, but the business side has been incredibly disappointing. I hope they can improve their customer service because the idea behind this place is inspiring.

I 100% recommend blush! I have never been to a gym before starting Blush! I was very nervous that the work out wouldn’t be for me/to hard or that I would be judged! The minute I walked in I felt welcomed and was able to go at my own pace! The trainers are amazing and always willing to stop and help you!Not only are the trainers amazing but so are the ladies that you are along side during your workouts! The daycare service is also amazing! My children love going to the gym everyday and seeing their care providers, the trainers and their new friends!! BLUSH is amazing!

I just joined Blush a couple weeks ago and it's been amazing. The trainers are friendly, knowledgable and so helpful. It's been a long time since I've worked out and they've been wonderful. The facility is clean and has tons of equipment. Other members have been welcoming and very motivating. Can't say enough good things about this place!!!

***Adding a response to Blush's corporate office cooment since I'm unable to comment back. I have reached out to you and it's that same email address that someone at your Corporate office is refusing to provide a refund and attempting to give medical advice that's 100% inaccurate.

**Original post/feedback:
When I began working out at Blush gym, I was healthy with no pre-existing pain or injuries. A few weeks after I started, I began to experience tightness in my hips and groin which has escalated to severe pain, tightness, and lack of mobility in my hips from the inner groin joints to my hip flexors. I then sought chiropractic care to help alleviate the pain and tightness with the hope of regaining some mobility and strength. Although it helped, the pain continued, and began to worsen spreading to pain in my knees. I could no longer run at the gym, and now even struggle going for walks outside the gym without pain in my knees and hips. I continue to seek treatment, and during my last chiropractic appointment, my chiropractor has asked what’s changed for me over the past couple months, and I explained to him the new gym classes that I’de been attending, and although the workouts are like what I’de done in the past, the floor of the gym is a ‘floating floor’ which is different from my past gym. My chiropractor was aware a ‘floating floor’, and immediately expressed concern. He explained that this type of floor isn’t healthy for prolonged use to perform any type of high intensity work-out or lifting on as it’s considered an unstable surface which causes the smaller joint stabilization muscles to become overworked and cannot function properly leading to joint and muscular pain due to chronic injury of the muscle. If an individual continues to train on this kind of surface, there is risk of progression of injury, and severity, location, and pain.

I expressed this to the corporate blush office and they're now refusing to refund any of the $ paid for an upfront year membership which I've only used 1.5 months of. They've advised me to wear flat soled shoes which any medical professional would NEVER recommend.

I enjoyed their workouts and the staff however their floor is not safe. There have been multiple complaints by the trainers at the gym and other members.

Please be careful and pay attention to your body and what is telling you!

Blush Bootcamp was exactly what I needed to kick my butt into gear!! I was welcomed with open arms from day 1!! I feel welcomed every time I am in the gym, in class, to be who I want to be, need to be, and can ultimately be. They make working out FUN, especially when surrounded by people who quickly support you and want to watch you grow as well. You will thank yourself for signing up and taking a step towards your ultimate health :)

Not enough words to explain how AMAZING BLUSH BOOT CAMP IS, it exceeds the expectations of a phenomenal environment! Lizz has such an AWESOME, FUN, FREE SPIRIT. All trainers are nice, helpful, & super supportive. As someone with no experience working out this place has made it so comfortable to adapt learn & grow! I truly love that there are alternatives to the workouts that allow you to work at your own pace & you never feel like what your is not enough. There’s no pressure to sign up, purchase products, or over powering standards that they want you to do this or that. Very clean restrooms, & I think it’s so great they have showers. They have the cutest childcare playroom. Beautiful floral wallpaper, encouraging statements on the wall. Women of all ages & levels very welcoming & inspirational. I fell in LOVE with BLUSHING & can’t think of anywhere else that has everything you need! Literally has become my home away from home & love it so much I wouldn’t want to miss a day💕
